Water Cycle Activity


Hello everyone! I will like to explain one activity that is related to social science content and it is 
the water cycle. 
This activity is aimed at the children’s of Primary school learning the vocabulary on the  topic of 
Social Science “The Water Cycle”, to be more precise they will get acquainted with its 4 stages: 
Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Collection. 
The students will eventually do both oral and writing activities which will consist in their
presentation and further explanation of each of the stages of the water cycle. 
After the explicit explanation of the teacher of the stages of “The Water Cycle”, firstly the students
are going to do a small test in writing, where they will be given a certain picture representing the 
basic notions of the topic, they will have to fill in the gaps, writing down the names of the elements 
of the topic. Then they will be divided into groups of 4, each group will be given the task to explain 
a certain stage of “The Water Cycle”, the students will need to do the task in the form of a small 
model using the necessary materials at hand as: markers, cotton, Whatman paper, glue and the 
rest indispensable for the work. To facilitate the teacher’s explanation and the children’s subsequent 
comprehension of the material some links will be provided:


that will be chosen according to the children’s level of knowledge.
Thanks for your contributions!! They are fantastic!!

Roman Empire project

Share a History project or activity which brings History into the classroom. If you want to use any other images teaching a geographical or historical process feel free to use it. Project: Roman cities Level: 3 rd course of Primary Education This project is closely related to Unit 7 in which we have learnt about modern cities and how they are distributed (modern district, historical centre and suburbs) and so, we can compare the differences between the buildings and streets in roman times and nowadays (size, shape, materials…). First of all, we are going to watch next video in which it is said how the roman empire was founded and there is a brief explanation about roman cities. After watching the video, I will divide the class in groups of four or five. Along two weeks, we are going to elaborate different roman cities with recycled materials such as, tetrapacks, empty bottles, containers, tins, cardboards, papers… To do that, I have prepared a Powerpoint for the
